NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The rollctl command sends commands to the DNSSEC-Tools rollover daemon, rollerd. Only one option may be specified on a command line.

In most cases, rollerd will send a response to rollctl. rollctl will print a success or failure message, as appropriate.

If rollctl is run as a PAR-packed command, it will use its own local copy of the dnssec-tools.conf file. This file will be found in the package directory.

OPTIONS

The following options are handled by rollctl.

-display

Starts the rollover status GUI.

-dspub zone

Indicates that zone's parent has published a new DS record for zone.

Multiple zones can be specified on the command line. For instance, this command will send the dspub command to rollerd for three zones.

$ rollctl -dspub example1.com example2.com example3.com

-dspuball

Indicates that DS records have been published for all zones in phase 6 of KSK rollover.

-halt

Cleanly halts rollerd execution.

-logfile logfile

Sets the rollerdlog file to logfile. This must be a valid logging file, meaning that if logfile already exists, it must be a regular file. The only exceptions to this are if logfile is /dev/stdout or /dev/tty.

-loglevel loglevel

Sets the rollerd logging level to loglevel. This must be one of the valid logging levels defined in rollmgr.pm(3).

If a logging level is not specified, then the list of valid levels will be printed and rollctl will exit. The list is given in both text and numeric forms.

-nodisplay

Stops the rollover status GUI.

-rollallzsks

Initiates ZSK rollover for all the zones defined in the current rollrec file.

-rollksk zone

Initiates KSK rollover for the zone named by zone.

Multiple zones can be specified on the command line. For instance, this command will send the rollksk command to rollerd for three zones.

$ rollctl -rollksk example1.com example2.com example3.com

-rollrec rollrec_file

Sets the rollrec file to be processed by rollerd to rollrec_file.

-rollzsk zone

Initiates rollover for the zone named by zone.

Multiple zones can be specified on the command line. For instance, this command will send the rollzsk command to rollerd for three zones.

$ rollctl -rollzsk example1.com example2.com example3.com

-runqueue

Wakes up rollerd and has it run its queue of rollrec entries.

-shutdown

Synonym for -halt.

-skipall

Stops rollover for all zones in the current rollrec file.

-skipzone zone

Stops rollover for the zone named by zone.

Multiple zones can be specified on the command line. For instance, this command will send the skipzone command to rollerd for three zones.

$ rollctl -rollzsk example1.com example2.com example3.com

-sleeptime seconds

Sets rollerd's sleep time to seconds seconds. sleeptime must be an integer at least as large as the $MIN_SLEEP value in rollerd.

-status

Has rollerd write several of its operational parameters to its log file. The parameters are also reported to rollctl, which prints them to the screen.

-zonelog

Set the logging level for the specified zone. The new logging level is only for the current execution of rollerd and is not saved to the active rollrec file.

The arguments for this command must be in the format ``zone:loglevel''. For example, this command will send the zonelog command to rollerd for three zones.

$ rollctl -zonelog example1.com:info example2.com:6 example3.com:err

-zonestatus

Has rollerd write the status of zones in the current rollrec file to the rollerdlog file. The status is also reported to rollctl, which prints it to the screen. rollctl prints it in columnar fashion to enhance readability. The columns, in order, are: rollrec name, zone name, roll/skip state, and rollover phase.

Provides additional zonesigner arguments for a given set of zones. These arguments will override the arguments in the DNSSEC-Tools defaults file, the DNSSEC-Tools configuration file, and the zones' keyrec files.

The zonesigner argument list is given in arglist. Given the rollctl argument processing, the new arguments for zonesigner cannot be specified as expected. Instead, the arguments should be given in the following manner. The leading dash should be replaced with an equals sign. If the option takes an argument, the space that would separate the option from the option's argument should also be replaced by an equals sign. rollerd translates these arguments to the appropriate format for zonesigner. These examples should clarify the modifications:

The zones list is a space-separated list of zones. All the new zonesigner arguments will be applied to all the listed zones.

The ``=clear'' argument is special. rollerd translates it to ``-clear'', which is not a normal zonesigner option. Instead, rollerd recognizes ``-clear'' as an indicator that it should remove the zsargs field from the rollrec records for the specified zones.
